A Powerful Partnership for Freedom

Cities For justice

Securing our Communities
for the Future

Making
the Unseen Visible

Your city is your community, your home base, the Little League you support and cheer for, the bike trails and parks you love, the business you started from scratch, even the memories of your high school prom.  These are linked inextricably to your geographic place in the world. 

That place you love, whether big or small, rural or urban, is also home to trafficked people – your neighbors who are forced to engage in labor or sex so a trafficker can profit. 

It takes courage, determination, and foresight to face the truth that 25 million people are enslaved worldwide, including in our own backyards.  The Cities For Justice Solution exists to challenge, equip, and celebrate communities determined to prevent, interdict, and eradicate human trafficking.

Putting Principle into Practice

How Cities for Justice Works

Community Assessment

  • Provides an evaluation of current community practices and policies that are intended to address trafficking or that may be impacting on trafficking
  • Identifies populations, locations, and businesses vulnerable to exploitation by traffickers and the most significant risk factors indicating potential for future trafficking
  • Builds capacity for effective investigation and prosecution
  • Prepares anti-trafficking policies particularized to the culture and specific needs of the community

Awareness & Prevention

  • Implements community-wide, specifically tailored human trafficking training
  • Provides written and digital materials for ongoing education
  • Identifies existing community agencies and resources that can be used to support and provide trauma-informed services for victims
  • Builds capacity within existing victim-serving structures
  • Builds and supports regional human trafficking coalitions for long-term sustainability
  • Connects communities and coalitions to other statewide resources

“There is no power for change greater than a community discovering what it cares about.”

Margaret Wheatley
